New sablevm.processor.affinity option that lets you specify which 
processors to use in an SMP machine.  The patch uses the 
sched_setaffinity() code in 2.5.8+ kernels.  Default is all processors 
(no change), and the code won't get compiled in if Linux isn't being used.

A warning are issued if a bad value is specified (or if the user tries 
to specify the option and the system doesn't support it), and then a 
safe default (all processors) is used.
